Barry Gifford had intended to print The Baby Doll Murders and Frenzy but
then sold out to Vintage. They were titles for which he had applied for and
received ISBN numbers. The Wikipedia entry for Black Lizard has them,
erroneously, as being published. Stanford also has files on them in their
Gifford Collection.
